NWSGet attention: K8KDR
Matt, if you can find the time to share exactly the steps you used to get the radar images working again, I and I'm sure others would be extremely grateful. I looked on QRZ for an email but none listed so I'm sending my request to the yahoo group hoping you'll see the request. 73 Bill, W1GTT William Covey, W1GTT SYS-OP W1SP WL2K System ARES Region 4 MCU Custodian Communications Officer Town of East Lyme, W1OEM Office of Emergency Management East Lyme, CT 06333 CT REGION 4 ARES Calendar _http://w1oem.no-ip.com/info.html_ (http://w1oem.no-ip.com/INFO.HTML) OR _http://kb1jdx.com/ctaresr4/event-calendar/_ (http://www.kb1jdx.com/ctaresr4/pse.shtml) Pictures of the Region 4 MCU http://www.ctares.org/mcu4.htm "Train as you operate, operate as you train"

Supressing multiple message ACK's
7
I have a situation that is generating a lot of duplicate packets. Station A sends a message to Station B, via Station C. But if Station B receives the message direct and ACK's, then receives the same message via C, it ACK's again, therefore generating a duplicate ACK which is repeated by C (as expected, as it came via the digi). So instead of three packets, I get five. Is there any way of configuring UI-View to supress the duplicate ACK, or at least adjusting a timer so it won't ACK again within xx seconds? Jim

Supressing multiple message ACK's (NOT)
APRS ACKS every copy of a message they get, including dupes. This is because ACKS have to go via the network TWICE and have that squared lower probilibty of getting completed. If the network is giving 50% reliability at each digi, the chance of getting back an ACK is only 6%. Hence every copy gets an ack, and yet the probability that a message gets to the recipient is still far greater than the chance of the ack getting back on a typical APRS network. In the above example, the chance of message delivery is 25% or four times higher. So people should NOT wait for an ACK if they already see someone reply to their message. The message from a human sent back will have a far higher probability of getting through than will an ack. (25% compared to 6%). And for that reason, EVERY one who receives and APRS message should do the courtesy of sending a human response. AND there's more. We invented the RELAY-ACK over a decade ago that further adds duplicate copies of ACKS embedded in outgoing messages. So two people that are in message dialog will have far grater success than those that just send one-way messages and expect only an ACK to verify receipt. Please do the courtesy of sending back a human response to incoming messages. AND turn off those stupid REPLY MESSAGS. They provide nothing useful in most cases except more QRM on the network.

SOLVED --Re: Nothing received from APRS servers
Keith VE7GDH..... Thanks for the hints. Turns out that I had (idiotically) put the "Filter m/250" instruction on the line entitled "text to send on connection" instead of "extra log-on text". Once I put the filter-command on the proper line, the inbound station information came pouring in .. just like it used to. Again, thanks for jogging my memory. 73 Bill W1WAB

Nothing received from APRS servers
2
Admittedly, it has been some time since I used the APRS servers function; relying on RF TNC transmissions instead. However, in trying to setup an internet-only backup station, I failed in receiving any other stations data when using APRS servers. background: 1) The latest list of servers has been downloaded, installed. 2) My correct registration and validation numbers are inserted in the UIView program 3) I am able successfully SEND my information via the servers 4) The issue occurs on Win 10, Win7, and XP machines Am I correct in using 14580 port at the end of the servers? I've tried the servers both with and without filter strings..... Could a "port" be blocked by my ISP or router preventing receipt of info? Open to suggestions. The process used to work........ 73 Bill W1WAB (also ke4zip)

Any of us could experience no longer receiving email from the UI-View support list. You might want to print this message and review it if you stop receiving messages from the UI-View list. If you stop receiving messages from the UI-View list, suspect that either... 1) this or some other Yahoo group that you are a member of is sending email which some spamblocker system regard as spam or junk mail (quite a lot of these reports since summer 2009). 2) it may be that your email account has filled up with unread messages or that the account on your mail server has ran out of storage space. Read or delete the old messages on your mail server. 3) Some MSN or Hotmail accounts, and others such as arrl.net, qsl.net which are used as a forwarding address from time to time cannot forward to your primary address. When this hapens, the Yahoo group receives an error message with something like "impossible to relay to xxx" and you are then in the "bounced" list. There are increasing numbers of bounces from some service providers about messages which are blocked by them for policy reasons. 4) You or your email provider have set up a challenge-and-response system for those sending e-mail to you.

However, you can subscribe again with a valid and working email account by sending an empty email to ui-view-subscribe@....

The UI-View Group is very active. Most already do so, but here are some some guidelines to follow. 1. Civility... this is practiced well by our members! 2. Sign your messages with your name and callsign. 3. Only post messages and responses that are relevant to UI-View. 4. Use plain text for messages sent to the UI-View support list. When you address some 5000 recipients, you cannot know what their email readers do with HTML formatted messages. Some will experience unreadability. 5. IMPORTANT: When replying to a posting (message), kindly delete all unnecessary text including the trailing text. Only leave the poster's name, callsign and the time stamp, and the text from the prior message about which you are commenting, and then trim the rest. When viewing messages in the Yahoo web based interface, the command [Up Thread] at the top of the message can be used, and many email clients can group messages by thread also. Some members have slow connections or pay for bandwidth. Brevity can often also improve the clarity of your message. Do not top post... i.e. do not type your reply above the quoted text. 6. When replying to a post, please decide if your comment should go to the entire group of about 5000 or directly to the author. Please think before replying to the group... replies like "I sure do agree with that" do not add much to the group. Send thoughts like those directly to the poster please. 7. Postings of sale or swapping of items are not wanted. 8. New members are all moderated for a number of postings. If the messages follow the guidelines, they are approved and the member is changed to un-moderated status. This is a partially moderated list, i.e., only the user's first messages are moderated, but all messages are monitored after posting. If an un-moderated posting is found by the moderators to have a problem, then the poster is changed to moderated status and in most cases also contacted directly to resolve whatever has caused the problem. Actions are taken against those that chronically violate the rules. The reason for this form of moderation is to block spammers from the list and it is working well. 9. Do not add disclaimers to your posts that (1) restrict the ability of other members to use the information you post, (2) claim a copyright to your post, or (3) to claim any type of "rights" as a consequence of another member replying to your post either directly to you or to the group. 10. Do not use anti-spam tools like challenge/response; the moderators will not respond, and since messages to you then will bounce, you most probably will be removed as a user of the group.

Setting up UIVIEW as a Local Server
4
I have UI VIEW working on a Windows 7 PC. It is has a VHF Radio and a TNC-X connected to it and it is getting a bunch of stations from the internet and from RF. In the APRS Server Setup I have Enable Local Server Selected. This computer is at IP Address 192.168.61.10 I have a second computer on the same Lan with address 192.168.61.11. I want it to get the data that is on the server. The mix of RF and Internet data. In the APRS Server Setup in the list of servers, I insert 192.168.61.10:1448 and then select it. I set the APRS Server Logon Required, I use my validation number I enable autoreconnect I use the same filter as on the server "filter m/100" After I connect to server, I only see the station of the server in the terminal and in the station list. I must be missing something, but I do not know why only the server information is coming out the port, and none of the other stations from RF or Internet that the local server can see. Any ideas?
